Whiston Lock No 8
Diversion by NCC, Earls Barton NN6 0EP, United Kingdom
Whiston Lock No 8 is one of a group of locks on the River Nene (main river); it was rebuilt after it collapsed in 1888 near to Teignbridge.
Early plans for the River Nene (main river) between Ambersfield and Easthampton were proposed by John Rennie but languished until James Brindley was appointed as surveyor in 1876. Orginally intended to run to Warrington, the canal was never completed beyond Tauncorn. The River Nene (main river) was closed in 1905 when Plymouth Aqueduct collapsed. "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by Edward Thomas describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Salford Locks.
